Represents an aggregate of up to 78,000,000 class A exchangeable subordinate voting shares, no par value (“BEPC exchangeable shares”), of Brookfield Renewable Corporation (“BEPC”), consisting of approximately 44,800,000 BEPC exchangeable shares, which will be distributed (the “special distribution”) to the holders of limited partnership units (“BEP units”) of Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. (“BEP”) and an additional approximate 33,200,000 BEPC exchangeable shares to be issued to Brookfield Asset Management Inc. and its subsidiaries (other than BEP, BEPC and their respective subsidiaries), as more fully described in the special distribution prospectus contained in this registration statement.

(2) 

Represents the maximum number of BEPC exchangeable shares or BEP units estimated to be issuable upon completion of the transactions (collectively, the “TERP acquisition”) contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of March 16, 2020, by and among BEPC, BEP, 2252876 Alberta ULC, TerraForm Power, Inc. (“TERP”) and TerraForm Power NY Holdings, Inc. (as amended from time to time, the “Reorganization Agreement”), as more fully described in the proxy statement/prospectus contained in this registration statement.

(3)

The number of BEP units represents a good-faith estimate of the maximum number of BEP units to be issued upon exchange, redemption or purchase of BEPC exchangeable shares (including upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of BEPC). Pursuant to Rule 416, the securities being registered hereunder include such indeterminate number of additional BEP units as may be issuable as a result of stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions.

Estimated solely for purposes of calculating the registration fee required by Section 6(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and calculated pursuant to Rules 457(f)(1) and 457(c) under the Securities Act. The proposed maximum aggregate offering price of the BEPC exchangeable shares or BEP units, as applicable, was calculated based upon the market value of shares of TERP’s common stock (the securities to be cancelled following the TERP acquisition) in accordance with Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act as follows: the product of (A) $16.67, the average of the high and low prices per share of TERP’s common stock on April 16, 2020, as quoted on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, multiplied by (B) 87,169,845 shares of TERP common stock (being the estimated maximum number of shares of TERP common stock that may be exchanged for BEPC exchangeable shares or BEP units pursuant to the TERP acquisition, including the total number of shares of TERP common stock issuable under outstanding TERP stock-based awards that are expected to be settled for shares of TERP common stock prior to the completion of the TERP acquisition and shares of TERP common stock underlying outstanding TERP stock awards that are expected to be cancelled and exchanged for BEPC stock awards in connection with the TERP acquisition).

(6)

There is currently no market for BEPC exchangeable shares. Estimated solely for the purpose of computing the amount of the registration fee pursuant to Rule 457(f) under the Securities Act.

(7) 

No separate registration fee is payable pursuant to Rule 457(i) under the Securities Act.

(8) 

Previously paid.

 

 

The Registrants hereby amend this registration statement on such date or dates as may be necessary to delay its effective date until the Registrants shall file a further amendment which specifically states that this registration statement shall thereafter become effective in accordance with Section 8(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 or until the registration statement shall become effective on such date as the Securities and Exchange Commission, acting pursuant to said Section 8(a), may determine.
